Several atopic comorbidities may be associated with atopic dermatitis (AD), such as food allergies, asthma, allergic rhinitis and eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE). EoE is increasingly being recognized as one of the main causes of dysphagia in adolescents and adults. The aim of our study was to prospectively evaluate the prevalence of upper oesophageal symptoms in a population of patients with moderate-to-severe AD, candidates for systemic therapy, to consider the possibility of an intervention of screening among these patients.

Abstract
Several atopic comorbidities may be associated with atopic dermatitis (AD), such as food allergies, asthma, allergic rhinitis and eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE). EoE is increasingly being recognized as one of the main causes of dysphagia in adolescents and adults. The aim of our study was to prospectively evaluate the prevalence of upper oesophageal symptoms in a population of patients with moderate-to-severe AD, candidates for systemic therapy, to consider the possibility of an intervention of screening among these patients.File in questo prodotto:
